Event information

Frankie Archer has exploded onto the electrofolk scene with music that transcends stereotypes using a combination of manipulated samples, synths, drum tracks and earthy Northumbrian fiddle and voice to capture her audience. Her aim? To shake up genres and traditions, challenge perspectives and call for a fairer future.

Winner of the 2023 Christian Raphael Prize, Frankie has been featured on Later… With Jools Holland and championed by tastemakers at BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music. Following the release of her debut EP Never So Red (November, 2023), she has supported the likes of The Futureheads and The Last Dinner Party. With her unique live set turning heads wherever she goes, Frankie is quickly establishing herself as one to watch in the alternative space.

Following on from a run of headline shows plus performances at Glastonbury and Deer Shed festivals in 2024, Frankie returns to the stage this autumn – including for this intimate show at Low Four.

‘Extraordinary’ – Jools Holland

‘Fascinating and intoxicating’ Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2

Special guest is Satnam Galsian. Satnam Galsian is a British Asian singer-songwriter and progressive folk artist from Leeds, whose music blends the rich tradition of Punjabi folk with contemporary, feminist storytelling. Through her distinctive sound, Satnam reimagines the vibrant narratives of her heritage, responding to traditional Punjabi songs through a modern and empowering lens. Her songs are deeply rooted in her personal experiences, drawing on her own journey of identity, belonging, and empowerment. With themes that centre around women’s stories, Satnam explores the complexities of navigating multiple cultural worlds and the strength that comes from embracing one’s true self.

In addition to her solo work, Satnam is part of Kinaara, a cross-genre trio that blends Punjabi folk songs, original compositions, and Celtic music. The band’s unique fusion of diverse musical traditions brings a fresh, dynamic energy to the folk scene, with their performances resonating deeply with audiences across cultural boundaries. With two self-released EPs, Fragmented Truth and Sahiban, Satnam has begun to carve out her own space in the folk music scene.

This show takes place at Low Four – a recording studio situated on Deansgate Mews in the Great Northern warehouse, which features a fully stocked Cloudwater bar.
